Ensuring Sectioning Quality in TMA Analysis for the Human Protein Atlas Project

The Human Protein Atlas Project is carrying out the systematic exploration of the human proteome using antibody-based proteomics, thus providing an invaluable publicly available HPA portal tool for pathology-based biomedical research.

As part of the project, the Uppsala-based Science for Life Laboratory tissue profiling group has so far cut more than 200,000 slides from over 1400 tissue microarrays (TMAs).
